Personal Statement

I specialize in adult psychotherapy and use evidence-based treatments, including cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy to help patients with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, stress, life transitions, and related disorders. I also have an expertise in behavioral management for people with migraine and chronic pain. I strive to provide a caring and collaborative environment for patients to identify and achieve their goals as well as explore the difficulties they might be experiencing. My approach is thoughtful, compassionate, and non-judgmental and I individualize my treatment to best fit each patient’s unique needs.
